My POV:

Today is the day before Halloween. I don't like Halloween because it's the time when people scare little kids. I want to hold those children in my arms when they get scared, not point and laugh at them. I don't dress up either. It's just not for me. I love eating the candy my younger brother brings home though. My favorite are jolly ranchers.

Today was also costume day at school. All the students dressed up, but I didn't. The guy I had a crush on even dressed up too. He looked really good even though he dressed up as some guy with a beard. I didn't know who he was supposed to be. Today was basically a free day in my last period class. ; so we watched movies. I paid no attention. Instead, I stared at my crush, not for the whole time. We eventually made eye contact and I looked down. This was the second time our eyes met.

Class ends and I get ready to go. Before I can, my crush asks me to wait. The whole class exits and I stay behind. I sit in my desk and he comes over to me. I'm having a heart attack. What is he going to say? I'm actually going to have to talk to him. Oh god.

"Eris, what's been going on?" He asks. "N-nothing." "At least make eye contact with me Eris. Don't be sacred to talk to me." He replies. "I'm sorry Mr.Dolan." I say as I hold my head down. "Why are you apologizing? It's my fault if I'm making you uncomfortable." That, indeed was what he was doing right now. " I'm going to be late to my next class! Bye Mr. Dolan!" "I CAN WRITE YOU-" before he could even finish, I rush out of there. My heart was pounding. I run into the bathroom to get myself together.

As you've probably figured, the guy I'm crushing on is my teacher. I prefer older guys. They're more mature, sexy, and responsible.

I splash water on my face and try to calm my racing heart. The hallway I'm on is quiet. I suddenly hear a voice echo through the restroom." Eris! are you in here?" Oh god. Just stay silent Eris, he'll go away. You're probably wondering why I'm avoiding the one I like, it's because I'm a little scared of him. I'm scared he won't approve of me if I tell him how I really feel.I peek around the wall to see if he's still out there. Thank the heavens he isn't.

Mr. Dolan's POV:

Eris seems to be avoiding me. It's been 2 months now. I'm her teacher and she's supposed to talk to me when she needs help. She's about to fail my class and she hasn't come to me not once. She just runs off before I can even finish the conversation with her. The first ever conversation. She seemed terrified when I asked her to stay after class. I need to talk to her and find out what's going on.
